I Am Going To The Museum of the Ancient Agora of Athens!

The Agora Museum is a very easy place to visit. Much of the museum is outdoors, the rooms follow a straight line so it is not overwhelming with twist and turns and, best of all, if anyone is feeling stressed out, they can go sit in the Agora and take a break.

100!!!! The 100th Ability Guidebook is for Oslo, Norway! I Am Going To Frogner Park!

It has taken several years to get here but I just finished the 100th Ability Guidebook!  This makes 27 countries that now has these free supports for people with autism.

Frogner Park is home to the Vigeland Sculptural Arrangement.  There are over 200 statues by Vigeland spread throughout the park.  Many are irreverent and modern, some are thought-provoking and one statue called “Surprise” should break your heart. The model, Ruth Maier, was sent to Oslo by her parents in 1939 to protect her from the rise of Hitler. Three years later she was dragged from her home by Norwegian police and handed over to the Nazis.  Ruth would be murdered five days later in Auschwitz.  This statue gives viewers a rare opportunity to remember how this twenty-two year old Jewish girl’s life disappeared from the face of the earth.
